What was the best part about using ChefTec?

i wish i had something positive to say about this software but its all negative

What would you change about your experience with ChefTec?

Worst part is the support, i have been waiting over 4 weeks for a refund they uninstalled the software and im just waiting i keep calling and for some reason the person that is suppose to be handling the refund is always away or in a meeting.

Overall Feedback

This software starts at $1,000 but what you dont understand is there is no realistic usability. The software requires many "plugins" because you can import your product mixes unless you have a plugin or want to type them in one at a time. Same with invoices if you dont have a plugin which is $500 each and $500 renewal fee. They used to have manual import csv they removed because people were not buying the plugins, there support person said that lol

Can put in any units of measurement

What would you change about your experience with ChefTec?

They charge you for everything and the data entry take long time.

Overall Feedback

Not worth it for one location. Requires using paper and pen for inventory unless you spend a fortune on palm pda. Once your support runs out they charge alot of money for help even If it's software related. Don't upgrade your operating system or they will force you to buy latest version

What was the best part about using ChefTec?

Started out feeling very positive about this product, the HARD SELL made us feel like it's just what we need to solve all our inventory problems. Thought this product was going to be a life saver..........we were so wrong!!!

What would you change about your experience with ChefTec?

We found this product to be very complicated, frustrating and too time consuming! We spent LOTS of money on this program hoping to simplify our life.....but, on the contrary!!! It was more time consuming than we ever imagined. The set up took months to complete, then the support ran out and they were more than happy to sell us more support. Unfortunately, our substantial expense in this was a complete waste of time and money! We were not able to get a refund as it took months to set up and then realize it wasn't what we thought it was.......definately not as easy as the sales pitch made it sound! This product should come with a complete IN HOUSE training and support team, it is far too complicated otherwise.

Overall Feedback

This program is built to take your hard earned money! To complicated without continued support....to which they are eager to offer for a hefty fee!

What would you change about your experience with ChefTec?

Its customer support service is only available during business hours and so if you need to reach them, it would be a herculean task. The software also lacks some features like POS, online payment/ funding, nutritional analysis, menu planning, free /reduced meals, healthcare facilities, etc.

Overall Feedback

The software comes at a one- time starting price of $995.00 per user with deployment done through the cloud, SaaS or Web based software solution.

What was the best part about using ChefTec?

A good cloud-based bakery software. One of the things that I find most useful about ChefTec is that it is a full-featured option: it includes inventory management, purchasing, ordering, requisition and transfer management and nutritional analysis. It allows you to track the ingredients and update your inventory. That is great because you can make decisions in real time and with reliable information.

What would you change about your experience with ChefTec?

In my opinion, there is a learning curve, so maybe you will need a little practice to get used to the system. Besides this, it is a bit expensive and that could be added as a downside too.

Overall Feedback

A SaaS cloud-based software designed for restaurants, bakeries, hotels, clubs and catering halls. A complete tool that helps you to track your inventory, analyze sales and use mobile technology to improve your workflow. You can store lots of recipes and manage food safety. All in one tool.

What was the best part about using ChefTec?

ChefTec really does help organize a lot of information and it is essential to have some sort of tool to regularly review pricing and profitability.

What would you change about your experience with ChefTec?

The company is only focused on itself. They change the rules of the game and hard sell at every opportunity.
For example, I have bought 5+ upgrades over the years. Last upgrade, they told me that the free 30-day support won't start until I load the software. Oops - they changed their mind ... now, they say it expired 30 days after shipment.
Upgraders always bought at a discount ... now, they call me weekly and tell me if I don't buy an upgrade now, I will have to buy at full retail in the future.
It's not great software, but it does work reliably and it does useful things. I just wish it were a more honest company that was customer-focused.

Overall Feedback

Software works, but is expensive. However, if you can find a better company with a similar product, go for it. Integrity is important in a supplier.
